📢Today's the day! Live tonight with Pascal Valentini to discuss "Internal sinus lift - when and how?"

• The question today is no longer “At what height can we operate?”, but rather “What biological and technical conditions ensure predictable success for bone heights less than 4 mm ? “
• At what residual bone height is primary stability no longer achievable via the crestal approach?
• When RBH is very limited, bone must be gained within the sinus to achieve the height required for osseointegration. Does the crestal approach make this possible, and at what cost?

⏰ Live at 20:30 (Paris time)
